Ok but then you say:
which confuses me
either way I don’t think the R27ET is as strong as you say or that the F-16A needs to be 12.3 for any reason just because the game is compressed
I’m sorry lol
I figured (sorry, it’s just too good of a setup to ignore, definitely don’t mean it 🤣)
It really is incredible, it’s my favorite missile in game because of no radiation signature and incredible versatility with a great seeker head
I don’t understand still though, how does R-27ET utilize radar here?
Ah, so the missile itself does not, but you can slave it to J band or any band actually. But it allows you to select and launch at targets well beyond standard lock range without giving any radar signature.
You can basically use the ET as a psuedo radar missiles with no warning. It’s pretty easy to defeat if you know it’s happening, the problem is most don’t went you shoot it at f15es in space that are only using chaff.
